Episode 277: AMA Pricing – Pricing Packages and Strategies
Welcome to the second episode of this year’s Ask me Anything. I do these series every once in a while, and I love your questions, so thank you to all of you who submitted your question.
Today will be all about pricing and in this episode, I answer the following questions:
How do you work with customers of different budgets?
Are your translation/revision/proofreading pricing packages prepared in advance?
Do you have set prices that are applied on a per word basis or hourly or project basis or does it all depend on the scope of the project
I hope these tips and strategies were helpful. Please let me know if you have any other questions on pricing that this episode or the related content is not answering. There is a lot that goes into pricing your translation services and choosing what type of price to quote to whom and you need to both be able to calculate your costs and target income, plus be able to explain your value, your process and be able to negotiate.
